Are these bars good for a low carb diet, any sugar?

Everyone needs carbs as fuel. If you're sedentary these may not work. If you work out the carbs get you through the 10minute pre cardio before lifting. :)

If you were out..the sugar is good before cardio. The protein helps when lifting. They are delicious. If you're sedentary they may not work for you. The ingredients are listed already on the product description. Hope this helps.

From what I remember, there are natural fruit juice flavorings. If the fructose is under a certain percentage, they can say "no sugar" according to the government standards. They don't raise my blood sugar levels, so I think they are ok. They are not carb free, but I think that doesn't matter, since when I test my blood sugar level, they don't cause a rise in numbers.

These protein bars are great to fill your stomach up and cut cravings and hunger because they have a low sugar level and high protein level. They taste great, almost as good as a candy bar. I love them with coffee!

Thank goodness no. These gummy bears are awesome. If they were sugar-free there would be reviews like this. http://www.amazon.com/review/R3FTHSH0UNRHOH/ref=cm_cr_dp_title?ie=UTF8&ASIN;=B000EVQWKC&nodeID;=16310101&store;=grocery

Extend bars use sugar alcohols. They consider them no net carbs. That may be true for diabetics, but I'm not so sure about Atkins.Quest bars claim not to use sugar alcohols. Their digestable carb content (4g/bar in most of their line) is probably correct.When I buy protein bars, I buy Quest.Most other low-carb protein bars have a lot of sugar alcohols.

Not to my knowledge..I just looked at the ingredients and couldn't find any sugar additives..

Not sure on those exact bars, but the blueberry ones I have contain 9g a bar, so probably close to the same. Looking at the ingredients of the bars it appears most of the sugar is from honey and fruit in the bars.

Believe it is 0.6 net carbs per serving which has no impact . I use them and my sugar is okay. I watch my carbs .

There are 230 Calories in each bar, 8 grams of fat, 24 Carbs. I think they taste good, and they actually fill me up. I don't use them as a weightloss tool though, just to keep in my purse if I'm out and need something to eat.

280 calories per bar. But remember, these bars were not created for weight loss but to sustain ones nutritional and energy needs so they are quite nutritious and full of carbs and protein.

no sugar low flavor but throw in a half or whole piece of regular gum and its good. makes a nice chew too!

I no longer have the packaging so can't answer that question. I do know the sugars are sugar alcohols. There are some who think these are safe and others who think they are as dangerous as refined sugar, especially for diabetics.

These use Maltitol - which is apparently pretty much as bad a sugar (GI and carbs), but lets you use a a sugar free claim in your marketing. So, why is everybody so excited about this product? http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/od/nutrition/a/maltitol.htm

No, they are not. They are corn syrup, and high corn syrup free, though! Definitely sweet, but from the fruits that make them, so no, not sugar free.

There are four flavors; each has 10 grams of carbs and 2 grams of fiber per bar. I like that they are so small--just a couple bites. That is frequently all I need.
